No Time Limit Keyword

<NoTimeLimit [N]>
<ntl [N]>

    MDSP bit 1000 modifier, the bit that stores RTs as +1 or-1 and waits for that response forever.   Reset if N = 0, otherwise set.   All MDSP modifiers are both parameters and switches.   If N is missing the bit is set and the mode is active.

    <NoTimeLimit> was introduced back in the bad old 16 bit days when an RT of 32 seconds was the longest possible RT and someone wanted a subject to be able to respond in a time longer than that.  These days with the longest limit being a large part of a month <ntl> is largely useless.  If you don't want to limit the subjects response set the time limit to something really big, like <t 10000000>.

    <NoTimeLimit> has no effect on RecordVocal, it will always use the actual time limit.
